Jennifer Holland is an American actress best known for her role as Emilia Harcourt in James Gunnβs HBO television series Peacemaker (2022β2024), where she emerged as a key part of the showβs core ensemble. Her performance helped establish Harcourt as one of the more grounded and serious presences within Gunnβs DC projects, balancing action-driven storytelling with character-focused moments.
Hollandβs most prominent later work has been tied to DC Comics projects under Gunn, beginning with her debut as Harcourt in The Suicide Squad (2021), followed by appearances in Black Adam (2022) and Shazam! Fury of the Gods (2023). She later carried the role into animation with Creature Commandos (2024β), making her one of the few performers to portray the same character across DCβs live-action and animated continuities.
Earlier in her career, Holland appeared in a range of film and television projects, including a recurring role as Becky Phillips on CMTβs Sun Records (2017), the comedy American Pie Presents: The Book of Love (2009), and guest roles on established network series American Horror Story (2011β), Bones (2005β2017), Rush Hour (2016), and CSI: Miami (2002β2012). Her appearance in James Gunnβs Brightburn (2019) marked a clear turning point toward higher-profile genre projects.
In her personal life, Holland began a relationship with filmmaker James Gunn in 2015, and the couple married in 2022.
